I recently had some issues with segment times in a ZRL race, and the WTRL folks suggested I might have a lag problem, based on my ZwiftPower profile. I can’t find any information about what this data represents. On my profile, I toggled “Columns → ‘Lag’” and it shows a metric in seconds for each race, a colorized progress bar, and there’s a tooltip that says “x seconds of missing data” but I’m not sure if that tooltip is being applied to the right place.
I don’t know what the metric represents. Typical values are 23s (grey bar); 43s (green bar) or 110s (orange bar). I’m pretty sure I wasn’t suffering from 43s of latency in a Zwift race where my teammates could see me and I could see them. Does anyone have any info in how the number is calculated (and how the grey/green/orange/red categories are chosen)?
first time i’m hearing about that column, but i’d guess that’s a fair amount of lag. only a few of my activities have any lag at all (1-3s) and i’m on pretty basic wifi in an outdoor shed. no idea how it would affect your segment times or what the root issue is though
Thanks for the Zwiftalizer tip (and @Cris_To too). I have uploaded the log for the race in question, and a couple of others, and they don’t show anything too concerning as far as I can tell. No latency issue, one single Bluetooth disconnect near the end. Nothing that matches the “lag” value in ZwiftPower.
